Am I pregnant? My period is due in 5 days

[JoGa]

Dear Friends,

Hello! I am new here so please help !

We decided to try for a baby. This is our initial try and so I started noticing 'many weird' things throughout the cycle. I am not sure if I am paranoid but quite many strange things has happened so far. I must say that I was on the pill for almost 10 years. I am now 28 years old and I had my first period after quitting the pill on the 25th of June. Due to PCOS I am not sure whether my ovulation was on the 'correct day'. Anyways we were having sex mostly every other day. I think we had a good first try!
Theoretically I have a 28days cycle, (since I only had one cycle so far). Here are some of the symptoms I experience throughout this cycle. Please help me understand if I am pregnant.
Initially I was experiencing cramping and backache for some days. The pain was like before my period but these symptoms were 10-12 days before period. In general I do not have a lot of pain before my period. Then I was having white milky vaginal discharge for 3-4 days and I also had two days of feeling really wet (8days before period). Pimples were also obvious 8-10 days prior the period and still are. Since Sunday (cycle day 21) I am dry in terms of vaginal discharge with only so light mucus here and then. Another strong symptom I experienced since day 20 of cycle is cracking and joint pain. I want to crack my fingers almost every 30 minutes (water retention?). Apologies if my post is quite confusing but any help would be appreciated! Am I experiencing all these due to quitting the pill or am I pregnant?

Thank you

I also experience increased amounts of earwax. It might sounds funny but I think there could be a correlation in terms of increased mucus excreted by body.

Hi hun :wave: I just came off bc pill last month after 3+ years, my period started June 29th. Short but heavy. I used opks to see if I’d even potentially ovulate first month off, I wasn’t expecting anything. I actually ov’d early on CD11. Have a whack of symptoms, sore boobs right away, mostly the rest starting 7 days after ovulation. Anyways, I tested this morning with a FRER and got a very faint line.
Moral of the story is, you could be pregnant, it’s not impossible! hope that helps a bit. I’d take a test in a few days if you can hold off (I couldn’t )
